I love Sirius

 

I think they have a long way to go. They need an underground channel and better rock channels., and better comedy, or acually now a comedy.

 

Define "underground"

They have an "indie" channel that's pretty good.

I am very happy with the programming so far. This coming from someone who's musical tastes run very far from "mainstream."

 

Stuff you don't hear everyday, stuff you gotta get out of sombodys trunk, unrealased remix's stuff like that...Stuff you not gonna see at media play.

 

I don't know about anyother type of channel, but most of the hip-hop channels don't play much mainstream. I would define them as underground. Occasionally you'll hear Jay-Z or Eminem, but mostly it's stuff I would never hear on regular radio, MTV or BET. They play a lot of remixes. Mostly all mainstream they play is by idiots who request sh*t they can hear by turning on the regular radio. For $13/month I can't complain.

 

All the rap channels are the stuff you hear everyday. Everytime I flip through on one of them they got missy, If I hear it again i'm gonna jump.

 

Really, I hear stuff from "high times" soundtrack, Wu-tang, Mobb deep, e-40, etc. stuff I would never hear everyday.

 

I hear some remixes and soem underground but 90 percent of the time it's mainstream...I'm not saying it's horrible, but can be so much better. I think xm acually does a better job with the rap selection.

 

They do have a comedy channel -- 147.

 

Well, they can't play stuff that's unreleased.

They can't play stuff from somebody's trunk.

They have to play stuff that's "legal."

 

That stuff is legal, once you buy it, it's yours, and it is done, just not enoguh.
